Tracking Contracts vs. Docbird

Docbird is built for the moment of signing. Tracking Contracts starts there — with monitoring, extraction, and supplier management.

Updated: 4 March 2026

What Docbird does well

E-signing specialist

Digitally signing documents is extremely smooth and legally sound. Docbird is class-leading here.

Low entry price

At €15/mo you can get started with digital signatures at a low threshold as a freelancer.

Clean, focused interface

No unnecessary features — the interface is entirely oriented around the signing process and workflow.

But here's what it lacks

Hidden costs at scale

You pay per signature or via bundles. With many contracts the costs add up quickly — the entry price is misleading.

Stops after the signature

Once the document is signed, Docbird's real functionality ends. No deadline monitoring, no AI extraction.

No contract management

No contract hierarchy, no vendor rating, no Chamber of Commerce API. It is a PDF vault, not a procurement tool.

The signature is done — and then what?

You sign a new cleaning contract via Docbird. The signing goes smoothly. But three years later you can't remember what the notice period was, where the annexes are, or when you should have given notice. Docbird stored the contract neatly as a PDF — but nobody warned you. The contract renews automatically for another year. Tracking Contracts would have read the notice period at upload and reminded you twice before the deadline.

Unlimited e-signing and contract management, for less

Docbird is ideal for the freelancer or agency getting NDAs and terms signed by clients. But if you run a hospitality group or SMB with dozens of suppliers, you need management after the signature. Tracking Contracts offers unlimited digital signing as standard — plus AI extraction, Chamber of Commerce API, and Vendor Rating to build your procurement file at speed.

Frequently asked questions

Does Tracking Contracts have digital signatures too?+

Yes, fully integrated and unlimited in all plans. You do not pay per signature or via bundles.

Can I use Tracking Contracts alongside Docbird?+

Yes, both systems complement each other well. Use Docbird for the signing process and import the signed PDF contract into Tracking Contracts afterwards for monitoring, extraction, and supplier management.

Docbird costs only €15/mo — is Tracking Contracts worth it?+

If you actively procure from multiple suppliers, the value lies in preventing one automatic renewal. On average, an unnoticed supplier contract renewal costs hundreds to thousands of euros. Tracking Contracts is €25/mo.
